Shaq to guest-star on ‘Fresh Off the Boat’

The latest casting for “Fresh Off the Boat” is a slam dunk: Former NBA star Shaquille O’Neal will guest-star in the ABC comedy’s upcoming sophomore season, TVLine has learned.

Details about the gig are scarce, but we do know that O’Neal — who will film his part in early September — will be part of the season’s third episode, titled “Shaquille O’Neal Motors.”

O’Neal played for six teams during his pro basketball career. In the mid-1990s, the time period in which “Fresh Off the Boat” is set, O’Neal was a member of the Orlando Magic and, later, the Los Angeles Lakers.

His TV resumé features roles on “My Wife and Kids,” “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” “The Parkers” and “Southland.” A pilot for “Shaq Inc.,” a workplace comedy starring and executive-produced by the All-Star, received a pilot order at truTV in January.

And his film career? Well, we’ll make the obligatory “Kazaam”reference and leave it at that.
